The 2023 Annual Preservation and Restoration Awards
Now Accepting Applications!
About the Program
The Swampscott Historical Commission is the proud sponsor of the Annual Preservation and Restoration Awards. You can nominate yourself, a friend, or a neighbor to celebrate efforts to preserve and restore historic properties that maintain our town’s character and beauty. These properties can include residences, commercial buildings, or other structures whose preservation or restoration maintains or is faithful to the original design or style.
Eligible award categories are restoration/rehabilitation, stewardship, adaptive re-use, and landscape preservation. Awards are presented in consideration of the following criteria:
• The historical and architectural integrity of the property preserved
• The exceptional quality of a rehabilitation project
• The extent to which the project contributed to the preservation of the property
• The impact of the preservation of the neighborhood and town’s historic resources.
